Yes seaplane bases are a real option/possibility In the meantime...added little lakes and 'wet' fields (shimmering in the distance)

I didn't like the ship hull so I decided to redo it the yellow is the new one. more tweaking needs to be done to the new one.

whoever did NAS Mirimar, excellent job on parking placement! (thinking Jimbib, if not still nice to not have them overlap)

ready to map

I'm still testing the campaign. It works not so as i want.

To all of those that follow this topic.....help is needed pls. I'm looking for LOD's for the terrain, e.g. static ones. I've searched here in the download sections and within the various terrains...couldn't find something suitable - Terraced houses, esp. for south England - Dover Castle - Heavy mortars. I know we have field guns...how about mortars? - Angled harbor walls (like the one in Dover) If you've something I would be most grateful. I know it's a bit early in the development stage...but who knows thx gt

Expected air defense .. moderate. Thanks God, not hard ...

wrrrrrr ....

Runway denial mission...... They have REALLY GOOD AAA in North Korea Lost my wingman to a SAM nest 3 miles out Then lost my plane to the guns............but the strip died.

Four-seat Friday!

Keep up the good work and do not let this discourage you. Campaigns are pretty difficult to get right, I know since I created them for the recent Operation Desert Storm mod. If you need some help or suggestions, feel free to send me a PM.

Just a quickie spelling edit of the title GREAT film! Thanks!!

I didn't feel that I came off as agressive, even considering my pure dislike of how crapun does business. sorry you took it that way. =========== VonS: yeah, it's a pain to the FE2 aircraft into SF2, but it's doable. I'm just sorry I couldn't get the SPAD close enough to the Sabre, to see the "Hat in the Ring" on both. The caption would have been something like "only 30 years seperate them". Both are 94th FS

iirc, there used to be a mortar team in either the SF1 or SF2 download section "Angled harbor walls" - you mean breakwaters?? I've found 2 ways of doing them. One is to paint them on the harbor tile itself. (see images below). One disadvantage, is the alpha layer in the tga don't like being curved (hence my use of straight lined breakwaters). It causes artifacts in the water fx. The other is, it's laying 'flat' on the sea. The other way is acutally have some build a lod, or find something to use for an elevated breakwater. There's a lod called "plattform01" that angled somewhat up, and 100m long. But again, as these are straight, they can be very diffucult to work with in making a turn, even in Mue's Target Area Editor (hence, they're being straight again). I know Dover has a very unique harbor set up; I couldn't replicate in the SF2 WW2 Euro map either!

I'm glad you were able to fix the cockpit lag with dgVoodoo. I tried that as well and was unsuccessful. I did some digging on my hard drive and found SuperPro 9.4: here is a link on dropbox which I can leave up for a little while https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ky9j24npeqfw77p/AAC9UMQNPL0lDIJbKR9YS_hqa?dl=0 I've never installed it before so I don't know which order you should try. Good luck!

Tnx a lot for awsome help.....

To get an "action view" in FE2, experiment by including the following entry under "Saved Games/ThirdWire/FirstEagles2/Controls/Default.ini," in the "ControlSet001" section of the Default.ini file: GOTO_VIEW_ACTION_CAM= I don't think that such a command is available in the stock Default.ini control file for FE2 (it is available for SF2). In terms of SF2 WW1 mods - I don't think there are any - FE2 models air/physics/buffeting, etc. in a slightly different way than SF2 - so it's best to run WW1 aircraft in FE2, maybe also 1920s stuff, at the latest. To experiment, pop in any one of the F4U-5 Corsairs made for SF2 into FE2 - top speeds are around the 750s kph in SF2 (historical), while they shoot up to the 880s kph in FE2. This is why it's not a good idea to "downgrade" aircraft from SF2 to FE2 - then again, upgrading aircraft from FE2 to SF2 is a pain as well. Best is to keep the two sims. separate for max. compatibility between mods. and the sim. such mods. were intended for. Von S

Looking good! Is there any reason they have Dutch flag on the tail instead of Serbian?

I am beginning work on the menus and menu music, by far the easiest part, but the part that makes the first impression.

My favorite ESCORT mission is. Two A-10 or something similiar. When making some single missions I often assign 'my' ESCORT to two A-10 (or something similar) armed with 'FAC' loadout - smoke markers, Mav, etc. And then ...Warthog will fly escort, will pop up some smokes on some AA defenses. Occasionally shot Mavericks. This is quite useful when flying SEAD, as that unusual 'ESCORT FAC' will mark targets for you...(helpful when flying without 'easy hud' markers on the screen like me) and also eliminate additional AA in the area. While my real ESCORT is fighter flight with a SWEEP mission assigned. Also quite fun is to fly SEAD with assigned ESCORT to Prowlers armed with HARMs. Or fly as Prowler - ESCORT with HARMs for SEAD Weasels. Also, one of my favorite missions to fly.

Those beaches and sea deserve a Felixstowe seaplane base together with the Hansa Brandenburg W.12 and W.29 base. But that would require a bit of England in the map. Anyway, amazing job!!

Some Ravenclaw goodies on Intruders. I love the combination of that aircraft with Ravenclaw's gifts to the community.

Now we're talking.... still a long road
